ShadowXP

# 🌟 Initial Release: ShadowXP v1.0.0 Welcome to the first release of **ShadowXP**! This plugin completely overhauls the vanilla experience system to be more performance-friendly, secure, and enjoyable for your players. ## ✨ Features * **XP Bank & GUI:** Safely store experience in a virtual bank using the `/xp bank` interactive menu to prevent XP loss on death. * **Secure XP Bottles:** Convert your experience into physical, tradable items using `/xp bottle <amount>`. Custom bottles are secured with NBT/PersistentDataContainers to prevent duplication exploits. * **Mass Orb Consumption:** Sick of waiting for XP to slowly absorb? When a player picks up an XP orb, ShadowXP instantly vacuums and combines all nearby orbs in a 3-block radius into a single instant consumption, entirely bypassing vanilla pickup cooldowns. * **Instant Pickup:** Option to have XP go directly into the player's balance on entity kills (requires the `shadowxp.instantpickup` permission). * **PlaceholderAPI Support:** Access stats anywhere using `%shadowxp_total%`, `%shadowxp_bank%`, `%shadowxp_level%`, and `%shadowxp_bottled%`. * **Admin Tools:** Full suite of commands (`/shadowxp `) to manage player balances and plugin configuration. * **Developer API:** Clean `ShadowXPAPI` provided for other developers to easily hook into the plugin. ## 🛠️ Technical Details * Built for **Paper 1.21+** and **Java 21**. * Uses **Adventure API** for rich MiniMessage component support (gradients, hex colors). * Fully customizable `config.yml`, `messages.yml`, `sounds.yml`, and `gui.yml`. * Highly optimized to handle data asynchronously and prevent main-thread blocking.
